Clear + Brilliant Post-procedure Patient Instructions

Expect pinkness, swelling (like a hive) for the first day. Bronzing, and pinpoint specks may continue for up to a week on the face, two weeks on the neck and chest, and two to six weeks on arms and legs. Usually there is no pain afterward.

1. Moisturize frequently with Aquaphor or a mild moisturizer of your choice. Apply a cortisone to any areas that maybe red.

2. Avoid harsh soaps, brushes, or retinoids for at least one week after treatment.
